As lacrosse continues to develop in non-traditional areas, Justin Porter plays a key role in the Chicago area. The former MLL champion and Hobart midfielder created a club program named The Lacrosse School to provide players an authentic lacrosse and life experience.
Porter, a Geneva (N.Y.) native who won an MLL championship with the Rochester Rattlers in 2008, aims to provide a tight-knit, family-oriented environment with The Lacrosse School, which is a year-round school program.
